Dear Abandonia visitors: We are a small team that runs one of the largest DOS Games websites in the world. We have only 3 members of staff, but serve 450,000 users and have outgoing costs like any other top site for example: our servers, power, rent, programs, and staff. Abandonia is something special. It is a library of old games for you to download. It is like an old gaming arcade with all the old games in their original format. Abandonia is a place where you can find great old games and have fun four hours and years. To protect our independence, we are dependent of our friends using the site. We run on donations averaging around 6 USD (5 Euro). If everyone reading this gave the price of a cup of coffee, our fundraiser would be made easier. If Abandonia is useful to you, take one minute to keep it online for another year. Please help us forget fundraising and get back to Abandonia.

When Abandonia was founded it was to collect and present all old games where the copyright protection had been abandoned, hence the term ’abandonware’ and the site name Abandonia.com. We are still doing our best to keep the site open and free and will appreciate your support to help it stay that way.

&dash; Thank you from the Abandonia Team

We are trying to make it easy for people in every country to donate. Please let us know how we could make it easier for you.

Apollogies to you, old games fans, for our recent low activity. We had some back-end troubles that are still present, but now we know how to handle them, at least :)

So, what's new? Recently Constructor was removed from GOG, since remake called Constructor HD will be released soon. Now all of you managerial fans can get it from our site, and perhaps get interested in new game as well.

Remember that you can write reviews for all of these games or others that haven't been uploaded yet and either offer them in the Offers forum or send them directly to our special collectiveAB@outlook.com email together with your Abandonia username. If you don't have a username, your contributions will be uploaded under the common CollectiveAB profile.

Heroes in a Half Shell TimeAlthough it's not exactly half-shell, time for turtle heroes. With movie being shown in cinemas, we thought it would be a good time to add the remaining action game for DOS.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - The Arcade Game is conversion from arcades, sometimes recognized as TMNT 2, sometimes as The Arcade Game, sometimes just causing confusion with the first game of the same title. It builds on the cartoon series, adds a little humor and lots of fighting with Foot Clan ninjas. Multiplayer supported :)posted by marko river // 17-09-2014 // downloadable // game // Action // permalink

Tidings from AshtalareaThe fantasy RPG Knights of Legend has just received a nice review, courtesy of Vic6, who receives our many thanks. Here's an excerpt:

"At times it feels like someone has made a heartfelt attempt to translate the depth and feel of a tabletop rpg on to a computer without fully understanding how either works. Much like Darklands it's an epic adventure that you have to admire for it's sheer scope and ambition even if the technical execution wasn't up to task. With hindsight Knights of Legend tried to do too much with too little, for every high point a player encounters there's a ravine full of rotting corpses around the next bend, and ultimately it paid the price and faded into obscurity."

Remember that everyone, even you can write reviews for games that lack one or haven't been uploaded yet. Either offer them in the Offers forum or send them directly to our special collectiveAB@outlook.com email together with your Abandonia username.

Read and Relax... Before the Next RoundOur resident MK master is back. This time, SpiDoL brings us the scans of the comic books for Mortal Kombat games. These comics act as prelude to the games and were published along with arcade games release. Written and illustrated by John Tobias himself.

Cup 20 Years AgoWorld Cup is nearing the end and we haven't put anything football related to the site. Now it's the time to correct it, with adding the game that is all about World Cup, the one from 1994 in USA.

World Cup: All Time Greats brings a famous Tracksuit Manager match engine to PC but unfortunately does very little above that. Still, it gives you a chance to taste teams from 1994 as well as previous Cup champions, at least as their manager. Have some fun with football legends before the finals.posted by marko river // 10-07-2014 // downloadable // game // Sports // permalink

Shifting GearsStarting today, there are some changes being implemented on Abandonia, and specifically in the staff's requirements for adding new games. While previously we always refused to add new games to the site if they had no reviews written, considering the current drought in contributions and the general passiveness pervading the site, we've decided to upload games even without them.

This is because we have gathered a big backlog of extras and archives. We feel that letting them sit and gather dust on the FTP would be slighting our past contributors.

You can help us fill in the gaps by writing reviews for games that lack them, offer them either in the Offers forum, or send them directly to our special collectiveAB@outlook.com email together with your Abandonia username. If you don't have a username, your contributions will be uploaded under the common CollectiveAB profile.

Mixed-Up AgainToday's is Children's Day in the world, so from time to time we add some game aimed for younger ones on this day. And today we really have something precious and rare to find: the second release of Mixed-Up Mother Goose, EGA version from 1991.

For all those fans who perhaps missed this version or simply wanted to see it. A big bowl of cookies goes to gumpy. Now let's go and fix some rhymes :)posted by marko river // 01-06-2014 // downloadable // game // Adventure // permalink

Let's go 3D! A bloody 3D!Today is the day the final PC version of many's favorite bloodsport, Mortal Kombat 4, arrives on Abandonia! The first MK game presented in 3D, complete with the game archive, the full ISO in the ISO Cellar and the soundtrack!

We can't give him a bowl of cookies because of peanut allergies, but let's treat him as we would any real professional sportsmen - a nice pack of McDonald's fries goes to SpiDol, our resident MK Master, for completing our treasured abandonware MK PC Kollection.posted by marko river // 27-05-2014 // downloadable // game // Action // permalink

Master TrickPrepare for something special, as one of the few card games with a personality before Poker Night at the Inventory, makes its appearance on the site. Klondike Pro tasks you to become the best player in the Old West in the game of "duplicate solitaire", and features a rather lengthy written story placed in the heyday of the Gold Rush.

Also in this update, we're glad to add the boxshots and the manual for Super Solvers: OutNumbered!, from one of the more popular and fondly remembered edutainment series among retro gamers. A big thanks to Tanara Kuranov for supplying the review and all additional content in this update.
